Summer days







Every morning when I wake up, I have a goal... how can I get Kenyon to burn enough energy for him to take a good nap this afternoon? After he wakes up from his nap, my goal remains the same, how can I wear him out enough so that he will get a good night's sleep? Because when Kenyon sleeps well, we are all much happier (and mama gets a chance to do laundry, make phone calls, work, etc.)

He loves slides and playgrounds, and thankfully there are a few public playgrounds within a mile of our house. He also loves swimming and we go to the local pool at least once a week. We were given a membership to The Children's Museum as an early birthday present for Kenyon, which we have used twice already. Kenyon likes the library, so we go every couple weeks and check out new books. We also try to plan playdates with friends.
Kenyon's new favorite word is "Amen." He shouts this at church several times each Sunday and thankfully, people think this is cute. He thinks he should say "Amen," when anything is finished- such as the librarian finishing the book she read outloud or a song he hears on tv or the radio.

Here are some pictures of Kenyon enjoying his summer days.
